Who's The Father?

At GH, Nikolas, Derek, Alexis and Sam wait for word from Dr. Clay about Derek being Danny's donor. They're impatient when he arrives. Silas ran every test twice to be thorough and they're good to go. Sam hugs him as he announces Derek is a viable donor. Alone with Derek, Sam wishes there was something she could do for what he's able to do for Danny. He only wants her to do two things. He wants her to take care of Danny and to let him be her friend. Alexis returns to see them hugging. Later, Sam reminds Silas how her son would not be alive without him. She pulls back from a hug and kisses him. Spinelli wonders if Maxie really thought she could just give their baby to Lulu and Dante without consequence. The Falconeris arrive thinking they know what the argument between them is about. They confess learning about Maxie trying to breastfeed their baby from the nurse. Maxie admits to acting like the baby's mother for good reason. They threaten to keep her out of their daughter's life but Maxie refuses to let them do that. Lulu doesn't want to, especially since she needs Maxie more than ever now. She confesses Luke is sick. Spinelli tells them they're right, Maxie needs to take a step back from their family. He will be there to support Maxie. The Falconeri's leave. Maxie cries wondering why Spinelli didn't tell them. He didn't for the same reason she didn't, the baby isn't theirs after she set up this fantasy for Lulu.

Morgan realizes he's found the gun everyone is looking for when he bends over to pick up his phone outside of the cabin. He lets Kiki know when she arrives that he's calling the police. She stops him, thinking he might not want to do that because of Michael. Morgan doesn't care. Michael is better with AJ behind bars.

At PCPD, Diane coaches AJ on how to answer questions. Outside with Anna, Michael's certain AJ could not have done this. She needs to follow the evidence and she can't let AJ go. Diane interrupts, thinking Anna can and will let AJ go because they've got nothing on him. Anna's certain she has the evidence she needs and leaves for the Quartermaine's. Alone with AJ, Diane asks if he remembers firing the gun. He only remembers being in Connie's office.

Anna arrives with officers at the cabin and requests ballistics be run. She wants Morgan and Kiki to give statements and apologizes for not getting a statement from Kiki earlier at the station. Morgan's surprised and asks why she was at the station. She confesses she did know she was going to the station when she left him earlier. She wanted to check on Michael. Morgan reminds her she's his wife and she might want to start acting like it.

At Wyndemere, Britt exclaims the baby is not Patrick's. He and his family can go live happily ever after. He reminds her she's been convincing everyone otherwise but now when he threatens custody he's not the father. He wants her to make him believe it and asks, "Who's the father?" She didn't have to sleep with anyone, the sperm donor is Brad Cooper. He gets angrier trying to figure out how she could do what she's done. Nikolas comes in threatening to break Patrick's hands to end his days as a surgeon if he doesn't let go of Britt. Alone, Nikolas wants to know what's going on between Patrick and Britt.

Back at GH, Brad wonders if he's finally caught Felix's eye when Felix chases him down in the hall. Felix wants to know what Brad knows about Britt's baby. Brad's angry that he's just a means to an end for Felix. He wants to help if he and Felix could speak hypothetically about being boyfriends. He's in love with Felix. Felix thinks it's a crush, like he had with Milo. Brad thinks they should try to be alone, together. Felix is fearful of his feelings. Brad makes him think that it's not regret he's feeling and is about to kiss Felix when Patrick pulls him away and punches him.

Back at PCPD, Anna arrests AJ having found out that AJ's fingerprints were on the gun.

Hi everyone,

After all the scheming and lying Britt did to trap Patrick into falling in love with her, now when she has the chance to make it up to him, step up and tell the truth she still continues to lie with the chance that Brad will once again cover her butt. I just cannot get onboard with this character and have no sympathy for her. Lulu senses the truth behind all that she's heard and seen, so I wasn't surprised to see her use the Luke sympathy card to once again delay the truth from coming out. Spinelli was surprising to me as well. While I understand he's upset and confused by Maxie's intent to pass off their baby as Lulu and Dante's, I don't think giving up his own rights to Georgie is the way to make Maxie pay. I'm bored with the Danny donor story, I'm happy he's going to be okay, but I need this story to be over and moving in other directions.

Casey, of course Britch is going to lie. It's her MO. I never expected her to be this humble and honest woman. She was mean to everyone except Patrick because she wanted to trap him into loving her.

The way I see it they are going to drag out the baby drama til the November sweeps.

You could also make a case that AJ's hard to explain, over the top anger which was misdirected at Connie of all people, was written merely for the sake of expediting and exploiting her exit from the show. I've never understood why AJ didn't simply march up the stairs to Tracy's room after he got the gun. Ava's too, except she wasn't home. Maybe Diane could make that point in court.

Diane looks great today, and so does Anna. Maybe Michael wouldn't want to get between them, but I sure wouldn't mind. Yowser!

Moron was right!

There, I just wanted to say that for the record at least once. He was right about the gun, and he was right about Kinky being the Worst. Newlywed Bride. EVER! Even though he's still got a hostile attitude towards Michael, I can't blame him since his wife can't seem to keep away from her brother in law, and lies to his face about it. I hope when he gives Anna his statement, he doesn't forget to mention that Ava came by to grope him shortly before he found the gun.

Speaking of hostile, I very dissatisfied by the conclusion of Drake Jr.'s confrontation with The Britch, and the way Nikolas' came to Britt's unnecessary rescue, channeling his inner Cassadine. I thought that scene was done all wrong.

First of all, Patrick had already let Britt go when Nik told him to take his hands off of her. I also thought it would've been much more symbolically dramatic if Nikolas has stepped between them, instead of standing behind a pregnant woman while calmly making threats. That scene should've been much more physical all around, with a furious Patrick manhandling a frightened Britt, and then Nik using his famed martial arts skills to shove Patrick against the wall, and THEN threaten him with permanent damage. Instead, they just delivered their lines like it was the first read through of the script.

When Patrick demanded that Britt identify the father of her baby, and told her to “Make me believe it,” I was shouting “NO! Make ME believe it” and she failed miserably on both counts. Britt was obviously lying about Brad. If she had succeeded in trapping Patrick, there's no way she would've risked losing everything by taking the chance that she wouldn't give birth to a flying monkey baby.

Sorry, not buying Britt's flunky (which is, of course, short for flying monkey) as the sperm donor, or as Felix's boyfriend. I FF'd through those scenes. Brad is a totally unlikeable person, and he should stay that way. I don't care why he acts the way he does, or why he is the way he is, and I don't want to see his smarmy pursuit of Felix pay off. I did enjoy seeing Drake Jr. punch him out like that, if for no other reason than to keep that from happening.

It was a cheap shot though, and a sucker punch of a much smaller man, so even though there's no doubt he deserved it, it was definitely a cowardly thing for Patrick to do. Still, I have to admit I liked it, because Brad, Maxie, and Britt, as well as a few others, need to learn that actions have consequences (which could be the theme for today's show), but by the same token, Drake Jr. could be in BIG trouble for assaulting a fellow employee in the hospital where they both work. Of course, these doctors, nurses, and lab techs get away with all kinds of stuff all the time, especially now, knowing that their boss Monica is out of the country, so I doubt if anything will come of it.

Aussie1 ~ Essentially yes they fired KS. They decided to not go forward with any story lines for her and wanted to put Sonny and Olivia together as a couple.

I'm still in shock over Spinelli's speech. What happened to all the righteous indignation? This is so far off the track as to be ludicrous.

Btw Dante and lulu are two of the most ungrateful idiots I've ever seen. The nerve to not go to Maxie the minute the baby was born for a huge tight hug and kisses was HORRIBLE! Then they learn of the breast feeding incident and instead of approaching it in a more understanding and compassionate way, they walk in and rip her apart and threatened her. Someone; maybe his mother, needs to ball them out. Such A-wholes!

lovesdogs, that shocks me about KS. Thanks for the info. I'm in disbelief as she is a fine actress. I wonder if she won an Emmy or was she even nominated this year.

bayou, everything is ludicrous about the show.

Patient, schmatient! Dr. Slimas was obviously running late because he was getting his hair styled, and everyone knows you just can't rush perfection.

Speaking of perfect, if Slimas ran that extensive battery of tests on Ick, he would almost certainly know by now that he's too perfect of a match to be anything other than a very close relative. I'll bet he's just waiting until after the donation procedure to confront Ick, to see if he's aware that he's almost certainly Danny's maternal grandfather, Sam's biological father, and Alexis' ONS/bad boy/baby daddy. He doesn't have to admit being “Julian” though. All they've got as “proof” on that is a Ouija Board and the hypnotically recalled memories of a drunken high school girl. He could dismiss that with a shrug of his shoulders.

That long anticipated first kiss between Sam and Slimas was not very hot. Maybe Patrick should've barged in before they locked lips, and punched SAM out.
